Gentlemen, sprout your mustaches. Movember is almost upon us.

The movement encourages men to grow and women to support the Mo (moustache) for the 30 days of November to raise awareness and funds for menís health issues. Participants are asked to register on Movember.com, start the month clean-shaven, and ask friends and family to donate to charity in support of their efforts.

Last year, more than 1.1 million people around the world participated, raising $21 million for programs related to mental health and testicular and prostate cancers. For more information, go to us.movember.com.
